Their kitchens make me feel better about being unable to afford their apartments. As I mentioned before, I'm not putting away my 30 lbs KitchenAid stand mixer after use. There are so many older apartments on the resale market that have vastly superior layouts. This is from their website: it's beautiful but dysfunctional; if you cook at all, you know what I mean. It's just not meant to be used at all.

Well, you can get a Smeg mixer and leave it on that countertop as a conversation piece instead.

This kitchen is hilarious. I guess you can host a cooking show with a small audience on either side? Are there no outlets on the islands, or do the actual islands have outlets, ruining the minimalist look?

And I don’t know why we are still putting gas stoves in kitchens in the year 2025.

I agree about the impractical layout ; especially absense of kitchens behind the walls. It would need a nearby pantry with open shelving for items such as a Kitchen Aid mixer. This is geared towards buyers with private chefs/catering etc.

But your gas stove comment is bizarre, imho...especially considering this is a luxury project.
It's akin to saying "why are we still buying oil paintings in 2025 when you can have a flatscreen TV to display art instead?" Or questioning why we are still selling Cuban Cigars in 2025 because of health concerns. A lot of luxurious joys in life are intangible and go beyond a spreadsheet.
It should come down to the consumer's choice.

Personally, I would never pay a premium for a luxury condo without at least a hookup for a gas stove. The only better alternative to satisfy me would be hydrogen gas cooking which isnt available yet.

55 Delisle offers better value for money as far as phenomenal location, all the features Id ever want for a much lower price point.
